This Annual Report on Form 10-K/A restates all of the information contained in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on March 12, 2004. None of this information has been amended, except
for the information contained in Item 12.

                                    PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Corus Bankshares, Inc. ("Corus" or the "Company"), incorporated in Minnesota in
1958, is a bank holding company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of
1956. Corus provides consumer and corporate banking products and services
through its wholly owned banking subsidiary, Corus Bank, N.A. (the "Bank").
Corus' other activities include investments in the common stocks of financial
industry companies as well as participations in certain of the Bank's larger
commercial real estate loans. The two main business activities for the Bank are
commercial real estate lending and deposit gathering. The third, and smaller,
business is servicing the check cashing industry.

Commercial real estate lending is focused primarily on loans secured by
condominium, office, hotel, and residential apartment projects. Loan amounts
often approach the Bank's legal lending limit and are secured by properties
throughout the United States. As of December 31, 2003, 87% of outstanding loan
balances plus unfunded commitments were secured by property outside of Illinois
providing the geographic diversification that management believes is very
important in the commercial real estate business.

With respect to retail banking, the Bank has 11 branches in the Chicago
metropolitan area. Through these branches, Corus offers general banking services
such as checking, savings, money market, and time deposit accounts as well as
safe deposit boxes and a variety of additional services.

Finally, Corus provides clearing, depository, and credit services to more than
525 check cashing industry locations in the Chicago area and an additional 20 in
Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

Refer to pages 37 and 38 of the 2003 Annual Report to Shareholders ("2003 Annual
Report"), incorporated herein by reference, for revenues, net income, and total
assets by segment.

COMPETITION

All of Corus' principal business activities are highly competitive. Corus
competes actively with other financial services providers offering a wide array
of financial products and services. The competitors include other commercial
banks, savings banks, credit unions, brokerage firms, finance companies,
insurance companies, and mutual funds. Competition is generally in the form of
interest rates and points charged on loans, interest rates paid on deposits,
service charges, banking hours and locations including ATM access, and other
service-related products.

EMPLOYEES

At December 31, 2003, Corus employed a total of 468 full-time equivalent
persons, consisting of 107 executives, management and supervisory personnel and
361 clerical and secretarial employees.

SUPERVISION AND REGULATION

General

Corus is a bank holding company within the meaning of the Bank Holding Company
Act of 1956, as amended (the "Act"), and is registered as such with the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve Board"). The Act
requires every bank holding company to obtain prior approval of the Federal
Reserve Board before acquiring, merging with or consolidating into another bank
holding company, acquiring substantially all the assets of any bank, or
acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of 5% or more of the voting
shares of any bank or bank holding company.

The Act also prohibits a bank holding company, with certain exceptions, from
acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of 5% or more of the voting
shares of any company which is not a bank and from engaging in any business
other than that of banking, managing and controlling banks, or furnishing
services to banks and their subsidiaries. However, Corus may engage in and own
shares of companies engaged in certain businesses determined by the Federal
Reserve Board to be closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks.

The Illinois Bank Holding Company Act of 1957 (the "Illinois Act"), as amended,
permits Corus to acquire banks located anywhere in Illinois. Other amendments of
the Illinois Act authorize combinations between banks and bank holding companies
located in Illinois and banks and bank holding companies located in another
state if that other state has passed legislation granting similar privileges to
Illinois banks and bank holding companies. Effective December 1, 1990, holding
companies from any state were permitted to acquire Illinois banks and bank
holding companies if the other state allows Illinois bank holding companies the
same privilege. In June 1993, the Illinois Act was amended to eliminate all
branch restrictions. Accordingly, banks located in Illinois are permitted to
establish branches anywhere in the state.

Corus' subsidiary bank is a national bank and, as such, is supervised, examined
and regulated by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency under the
National Bank Act. Since a national bank is also a member of the Federal Reserve
System and its deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
("FDIC"), the subsidiary bank is also subject to the applicable provisions of
the Federal Reserve Act, the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, and, in certain
respects, to state laws applicable to financial institutions.

The subsidiary bank is subject to FDIC deposit insurance assessments. Under the
FDIC's risk-based assessment system, the assessment rate is based on
classification of a depository institution in one of nine risk assessment
categories. Such classification is based upon the institution's capital level
and upon certain supervisory evaluations of the institution by its primary
regulator. The subsidiary bank's FDIC deposit insurance cost for 2004 will be
approximately 0.02% of deposits.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 ("FDICIA")
initiated new intense regulation for the financial services industry. FDICIA
made significant changes in the legal environment for insured banks, including
reductions in insurance coverage for certain types of deposits, increases in
consumer-oriented requirements, and substantial revisions in the supervision,
examination, and audit processes. FDICIA also required new reporting by banks
and mandated adoption of new regulations concerning capital, liquidity, internal
controls, safety and soundness, and prompt corrective action.



                                        2

Capital Adequacy

The Federal Reserve Board established risk-based capital guidelines that require
bank holding companies to maintain minimum capital ratios. The main objective of
the risk-based capital requirements is to provide a fair and consistent
framework for comparing capital positions of all banking institutions. Under
these guidelines, capital consists of two components, core capital elements
(Tier 1 capital) and supplementary capital elements (Tier 2 capital). Assets and
off-balance-sheet items are assigned broad risk categories. The aggregate dollar
value of each category is multiplied by a risk weight associated with that
category.

In 1992, the FDIC adopted new regulations that defined five capital categories
for purposes of implementing the requirements under FDICIA. The five capital
categories, which range from "well-capitalized" to "critically
under-capitalized", are based on the level of risk-based capital measures. The
minimum risk-based capital ratios for Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and
total risk-based capital to risk-weighted assets to be classified as
well-capitalized are 6.0% and 10.0%, respectively. At December 31, 2003, Corus'
Tier 1 capital and total risk-based capital ratios were 17.9% and 20.5%,
respectively.

In addition, bank regulatory agencies established a leverage ratio to supplement
the risk-based capital guidelines. The leverage ratio is intended to ensure that
adequate capital is maintained against risks other than credit risk. A minimum
required ratio of Tier 1 capital to total assets of 3.0% is required for the
highest quality bank holding companies that are not anticipating or experiencing
significant growth. All other banking institutions must maintain a leverage
ratio of 4.0% to 5.0% depending upon an institution's particular risk profile.
At December 31, 2003, Corus' leverage ratio was 18.7%.

Interstate Banking

The Riegle-Neal Interstate Bank and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 ("IBBA")
permits bank holding companies that are adequately capitalized and managed to
acquire banks located in any other state after September 29, 1995, subject to
certain statewide and nationwide deposit concentration limits. States may
prohibit acquisition of banks that have not been in existence for at least five
years.

The interstate branching by merger provisions were effective on June 1, 1997,
unless a state took legislative action prior to that date. The long-term effects
on Corus of such changes in interstate banking and branching laws cannot be
predicted. However, Corus is currently experiencing increased competition from
national and regional banking firms headquartered outside of Illinois.

Graham-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999

The enactment of the Graham-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (the "GLB Act") repeals
sections 20 and 32 of the Banking Act of 1933 (the "Banking Act"), allowing new
opportunities for banks, other depository institutions, insurance companies, and
securities firms to enter into combinations that permit a single financial
services organization to offer customers a more complete array of financial
products and services. To further this goal, the GLB Act amended section 4 of
the Banking Act providing a new regulatory framework for regulation through the
financial holding company ("FHC"), which has as its umbrella regulator the
Federal Reserve Board. Functional regulation of the FHC's separately regulated
subsidiaries will be conducted by their primary functional regulator. Pursuant
to the GLB Act, bank holding companies, subsidiary depository institutions
thereof, and foreign banks electing to qualify as a FHC must be "well managed,"
"well capitalized," and at least rated satisfactory under the Community
Reinvestment Act in order for them to engage in new financial activities. The
GLB Act also provides a federal right to privacy of non-public personal
information of individual customers.

Guaranteed student loans that are greater than 90 days past due are classified

Potential Problem Loans

In addition to those loans disclosed under the preceding "Past Due, Nonaccrual,
and Restructured Loans" section, management identified, through their problem
loan identification system, certain other loans in the portfolio where known
information about possible credit problems of borrowers causes management to
have serious doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with the
present loan repayment terms and which may result in future disclosure of such
loans as nonaccrual, past due, or troubled debt restructurings. As of December
31, 2003, the principal amount of these loans was $4.4 million. This amount
generally includes commercial real estate loans that were classified as either
Special Mention or Substandard for regulatory purposes and residential real
estate loans that are either in bankruptcy or in process of foreclosure.

Commercial Real Estate Risk and Capital

The following disclosure is not computed in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles ("GAAP") and is considered a non-GAAP disclosure.
Management believes that this presentation, while not in accordance with GAAP,
provides useful insight into how management analyzes and quantifies risk and
determines the appropriate level of capital.

Management has made a concerted effort to distill the numerous objective, as
well as subjective, risks inherent in the commercial real estate ("CRE") loans
we originate into a rigorous system to analyze and quantify risk. At its core,
this system takes the form of management and loan officers estimating a loan's
Probability of Default ("POD") and its Loss Given Default ("LGD") if a serious
recession should occur. This point bears repeating - the POD and LGD estimates
are not based on today's market conditions, instead they are arrived at by
"stressing" all major assumptions regarding the cash flow and/or values of the
underlying real estate down to levels that could manifest themselves during a

declines in

CRE property values witnessed during the late 1980's and early 1990's.
Typically, we assume that office and hotel projects will be worth only 50% to
60% of their cost (not appraised value) and we typically assume that rental and
for-sale housing will be worth 60% to 80% of cost. Keep in mind that while these
are the typical discounts, each loan is analyzed individually and may have
discounts larger or smaller than mentioned above. Lastly, it is important to
realize that we could well have nonperforming loans and/or charge-offs in
economic conditions other than what might be characterized as serious. While
Corus has attempted to be conservative in its assessment of potential defaults
and losses, it is conceivable that actual defaults and/or losses may be greater,
perhaps materially, than estimated.

Following is a table that summarizes the total size of our CRE loan portfolio,
the weighted average POD and LGD percentages and the resulting implied CRE loans
that could default, and losses that could occur.

(1) The POD and LGD estimates are not based on today's market conditions,
    instead they are arrived at by "stressing" all major assumptions regarding
    the cash flow and/or values of the underlying real estate down to levels
    that could manifest themselves during a serious recession.

(2) Not necessarily all nonperforming loans would be nonaccrual; however, in
    order to be conservative we will assume 100% of the above nonperforming
    loans are nonaccrual.

Management believes that the declines in the POD and LGD factors from 2002 to
2003 reflect, in aggregate, a safer portfolio.

The above figures are a critical piece of the output from the Bank's internal
risk identification system. However, the system would be incomplete if these
risks did not assist in calculating an appropriate level of risk-adjusted
capital for the Bank to maintain, but they do. Broadly speaking, the capital the
Bank allocates to CRE loans can be split into three interrelated, but distinct,
categories.

The first, and largest component, is that for the Bank to receive the highest
regulatory capital rating, known as well-capitalized, $304 million of capital
must be kept against our $2.3 billion of CRE loans on the balance sheet and the
$1.5 billion of CRE related commitments (comprised of unfunded construction
loans and outstanding



                                       12

commitment letters) as of December 31, 2003. The well-capitalized designation is
very important in numerous respects; among other things, being below
well-capitalized could potentially increase the Bank's FDIC premiums and
adversely affect its ability to issue brokered certificates of deposit or pay
dividends to the Bank Holding Company.

The second component is driven off of the POD and LGD factors. As shown above,
total potential charge-offs under a serious recession, based on December 31,
2003 balances, are calculated at $90 million. Assuming certain IRS guidelines
are followed, charge-offs are fully tax-deductible. Therefore, the potential $90
million of charge-offs would translate into an after-tax decrease in equity of
$59 million.

The third, and last, component is a "cushion" over and above the regulatory
well-capitalized minimums - this cushion was approximately $60 million as of
December 31, 2003.

These three components of capital allocated to CRE loans totaled $423 million as
of December 31, 2003. Lastly, the Bank has various non-CRE loans, commitments,
and other items that require additional capital of $40 million, thus yielding a
grand total capital goal of $463 million. The Bank had actual regulatory capital
(Bank equity less goodwill plus a portion of the allowance for loan losses) of
$610 million at December 31, 2003, or $147 million in excess of our capital
goal.

The unallocated balance is based on management's review of overall factors
affecting the determination of probable losses inherent in the portfolio, which
may not be captured, or captured completely, by the mechanical application of
historical loss ratios and other factors used in determining the allocated
inherent reserve. This portion of the reserve analysis involves the exercise of
judgment and reflects all appropriate considerations, including management's
view that the reserve should have a margin that recognizes the imprecision
inherent in the process of estimating expected credit losses.
